[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH] build-sys: Check for necessary programs in bootstrap.sh

[Colin Guthrie]

'Twas brillig, and Maarten Bosmans at 28/07/11 13:21 did gyre and gimble:
> Only checking once for DIE=1 does indeed loose the ability to report

> + DIE=1
> + intltoolize --version
> + _libtoolize --version
> ./bootstrap.sh: regel 73: _libtoolize: opdracht niet gevonden
> + DIE=1
> + test 1 = 1
> + exit 1

> So I think that is clear enough.

Ahhhhh, I looked at the stdout>/dev/null and forgot that the command
non-existance would be reported via stderr... yes this is totally clear
enough - my fault for not fully grokking what would happen in practice :D

Cheers
